You create your opportunities by asking for them.

A man with money is no match against a man on a mission.

Doyle Brunson

By forgetting the past and by throwing myself into other interests, I forget to worry.

Jack Dempsey

I've seen a lot of the United States, having stayed in so many different cities and towns for work. It's such a strange and fascinating country, and instead of learning about it through a textbook, I would rather discover its history and traditions and institutions through fiction and nonfiction writers.

Hope Davis

Reviewers, with some rare exceptions, are a most stupid and malignant race. As a bankrupt thief turns thief-taker in despair, so an unsuccessful author turns critic.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

People became more interested in my love life than in me, and that has a certain effect. You start to feel very empty and worth nothing, you start to become a piece in a board game you never wanted to play.

Anna Friel

I, for one, respect those who believe with all their hearts and conscience that there are no circumstances under which any abortion should ever be available.

Hillary Clinton

Similarly with regard to truth, won't we say that a soul is maimed if it hates a voluntary falsehood, cannot endure to have one in itself, and is greatly angered when it exists in others, but is nonetheless content to accept an involuntary falsehood, isn't angry when it is caught being ignorant, and bears its lack of learning easily, wallowing in it like a pig?

Plato

We had common interests in the beauty of the French language. We both had a tremendous love of jazz. We shared dreams of getting married and having a family, living in the country, leading an idyllic life.

David Amram

Opportunity makes a thief.

Francis Bacon

We have the best government that money can buy.

Mark Twain

Money can't buy you friends; but you do get a better class of enemies.
